I know that my buddies in the local PCA regions would love to get the 991 GT3s into their own class in 2015. We'll see...

If you have jack stands, SWB and the other center-resonator-delete units are all bolt on. You could enjoy the bypass most of the time and just swap out for the event. It could be worth it!

The 991GT3 version is about to be released and I hear it sounds even better, though that is 'hear' in the sense of hearsay, not hear via my ear!
Is Craig-Rennstore the guy to inquire with about this?

Thanks!

Removing the side mufflers equals super loud.

When one looks at the cut away, it shows what happens. There is an open pipe, then a 1 in space, then a receiving trumpeted pipe (opening bigger). I would assume at lower pressure/volume that this gap allows for a lot of muffling, and less and less as higher pressure and volume flow through it. But I definitely agree, the side muffler delete is louder!!!
